Rainy Season


The rains finally arrived in Tequisquiapan on Tuesday, and how!

After 6 months of blue skies, we have been treated to some fierce storms which have started to transform the place..

One of the results has been a softening of the ground at Parque La Pila, resulting in better feeding opportunities for the Egrets nesting there.

A bit more 'urban birding' around the Park yielded some Barn Swallows (below), Starlings, Cassin's Kingbirds, Cattle Egrets, Black-crowned Night Heron, House Finches, House Sparrows, a party of Bushtits, Clay-coloured Robin, Golden-fronted Woodpecker and Great-tailed Grackles.
